Subject: My 3-year-old fought cancer — he needs his wish
To: [email protected]

When Henry was 17 months old, my wife Andrea noticed a big lump in his belly. They went right to urgent care, and the doctor said, “You need to go to the emergency room right now.” That’s where we found out Henry had cancer.

Make-A-Wish coming to grant his wish to ride in a combine harvester is something that Henry is really looking forward to. And his wish has gotten him through some dark times. Will you help Henry’s wish come true now with a heartfelt gift?

Unfortunately, the tumor kept growing. He went through four rounds of chemo. It felt long because of how difficult, time-consuming, and painful it is to give chemo to a 2-year-old. He didn’t have any energy. He wasn’t his normal, happy, outside-loving, energetic self.  

So to have people like you give Henry something BIG to look forward to, especially after he’s been through something awful, is really amazing.

We’re hoping his wish gives Henry the chance to make joyful, new childhood memories that outshine the hardships he’s faced. Please give now — help grant my son’s wish while your donation goes 3X as far.
